Ghana international Jordan Ayew has agreed to join Leicester City permanently from Crystal Palace, Afrosport reports.
The 32-year-old will reportedly join the Foxes in a deal worth around £8 million including add-ons, bringing an end to his six-year career at Palace, having initially joined on a loan deal in the 2018-19 campaign, before making it permanent in July 2019.
Ayew, who has played 212 matches for the Eagles, scoring 23 goals and providing 22 assists in all competitions, is set to undergo a medical at Leicester before the announcement of the move.

The Ghanaian forward was on the bench on Sunday when Palace lost 2-1 to Brentford at the Gtech Community Stadium in their Premier League opener. He, however, featured in the final 20 minutes, replacing Japanese midfielder Daichi Kamada in the 70th minute.
Ayew’s move to the King Power Stadium will see him suit up for his fourth Premier League club following spells at Aston Villa and Swansea City.
